What can a med spa advertise in Oregon?

Marketing · part of The Practice Perimeter

Oregon defines unprofessional or dishonorable conduct, for a person licensed to practice MEDICINE OR PODIATRY, as conduct unbecoming such a licensee or detrimental to the best interests of the public — including any conduct or practice contrary to the recognized standards of ethics of the medical or podiatric profession, or which does or might constitute a danger to a patient or the public. Knowingly making a false statement material to the right to practice medicine or to obtain a license is separately prohibited. Neither provision is an advertising rule by its terms; how either applies to a particular marketing claim is a judgment for the board.
